The protocol features robust technical attributes, including immutable smart contracts and a high volume of transactions, audited by reputable firms which enhance its reliability. However, it is hindered by inadequate documentation, lack of internal testing, and no pause mechanism, posing risks to operational control. Economically, while it avoids token-related risks and uses a proven AMM formula, its recent launch raises concerns over its untested market resilience and the quality of listed tokens. Operationally, low legal risks contrast with governance concerns due to minimal team transparency and centralized control.

Economic
Evaluate possible financial and economic risks depending on the project type (e.g., for lending, check the collateralization system), protection against CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and exploits), oracle risks, and systemic concerns.

As the project is a fork of Uniswap v2, its AMM formula benefits from extensive real-world testing, enhancing its reliability.

The absence of a token in the system eliminates associated token-related risks.

Launched in Oct 2023, the protocol has not yet been tested in extreme market situations.

There is no whitelist mechanism for listings, which could lead to a broader spectrum of assets being traded but also raises concerns regarding the quality and legitimacy of listed tokens.

Operation
Look into the team's experience, track record, and project governance. Consider legal and counterparty risks that may impact the project.
